CHALLENGE
Gut Health is one of the biggest concern of animal farming operations worldwide. With AGP bans, resis[1]tance issues and rising environmental and disease challenges, producers must look for smart solutions to maintain the health of their animals. As this situation is unlikely to change, the challenge facing nutritionists and animal producers is how to maintain animal health while keeping feed costs down. By optimizing the gut integrity of your animals, you ensure just that. Exposure of birds to stressors like feed changes, pathogens, or vaccinations can increase the risk of diseases and compromise their overall well-being. The use of medication can also disrupt the microbial balance and gastrointestinal tract, leading to a need for natural alternatives like organic acids.
Ensuring a stable gut integrity requires a reliable, effective, and convenient solution that counters the effects of stressors to prevent economic losses.
SOLUTION
Butyric acid is a naturally occuring short-chain fatty acid in animals and a well-established feed ingredient in poultry and swine production used to support gut health and the immune system.
SpeoCare™ T60 is an innovative tributyrin feed mate[1]rial produced out of butyric acid and glycerol with esterification technology. This esterification technol[1]ogy allows for the targeted release of butyric acid – where it is needed – ensuring the butyric acid is protected against absorption before reaching the intestine.
SpeoCare™ T60 is a highly concentrated solid tributyrin product with over 60% tributyrin content. It is free flowing, virtually dust free and has no unpleasant smell. It can be supplemented in feed of all animal species, in particular recommended in poultry and swine.
After passing through the stomach, the tributyrin is hydrolyzed in the small intestine by lipase activity, releasing butyric acid where it is most effective in supporting gut health. This distinctive formulation offers:
- Availability of butyric acid throughout the small and large intestine
- Higher efficacy compared to other butyric acid product forms due to higher butyrate percentage and excellent butyrate release properties
- High cost-effectiveness
WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU
